In early 2024, Mark Sampson—co-founder of the boutique amp movement and the mind behind some of the most iconic designs in the industry—returned to Bad Cat. One of the projects he chose to revisit was the Black Cat. What followed is a brilliant revision of one of our award-winning amplifiers.
Mark had a way of seeing deeper into a circuit -- of knowing what to change, and what not to—guided by a lifetime of experimentation, invention, and obsessive pursuit of tone. The Mod Shop Black Cat 30 is one of the final chapters in that story: a handcrafted, limited-edition amplifier that blends the roots of Bad Cat with a new big, bold voice.

All-new tone stack – Revoiced by Mark to feel more open, bold, and dimensional.
